German WWI aircraft tail help

[Steve Brodie]

Anyone know what aircraft the tail in this photo may have belonged to please? Then I can see if there are any other options beside white

[Tim Marlow]

Looks like a Fokker DR1 triplane….

Evening Steve,

It's difficult to tell which airplane the rudder came from. It could be, like Tim said, from a Fokker or from a Roland, Pfalz, Albatros or others. The good news is, if you check them out, you'll see the colors they were painted gives you many possibilities, including the white shown. HTHs a bit.......

Cheers both, only one I could think of was a DR1

Hi Steve
It’s not a Dr.1. I think it’s an Albatros DV/DVa. And there’s loads of colour options to choose from (even a Richthofen Red machine).
Hope this helps

From looking at my own models of world war 1 aircraft I'd say it a fokker EII. Triplane has a round tail with a flat base Albatross would be huge. But the EII looks the part.

My vote goes to the Albatross rudder.

+1 on the Bert Ross. The hinge is in the wrong place for the EII Alan (sorry).
